Flying Room: Installing Rotating Mechanism

Our assistant JR Uretsky and RWU research assistant Chris Capozzi prepare to install the custom built rotating mechanism, which features 3 plates of quarter inch steel and 16 ball transfer units. It took us about 8 hours to drill the 12 inch and a half holes through it.

The guide wheels are being placed to determine measurements. Whenever possible, we prefer to take measurements off of real materials and objects over trusting theoretical math–too often we forget something when it’s on paper only.
